Long self-justification/apologia: recapitulates the 25-Apr amnesty (art. 5, the 1831 movements vs Victoria), his consistent obedience to the Supreme Gov. since adhering to the pronunciamiento, and his promotion of constitutional order; asks Figueroa to commission someone to certify his papers (⭐ 'en el país no hay escribano público' — no notary in California); ⭐ closes with a parting shot at Zamorano — demanding Figueroa make Capt. Agustín V. Zamorano declare if he accepts the amnesty, calling him 'un hijo propiamente adoptivo de la Nación… de los más culpados' [Sav pp.97-100 gap; p.101 cited]
